I know how you love to eat your comfort food when you have had a trying time. Somehow, eating your favorite food seems to soothe you. However, the greatest comfort food that you can digest during a trial is My Word. Many of My beloved keep going through the same trial over and over again. I long for them to find comfort and instruction in My Word, but few turn to My Word. They are so overwhelmed emotionally during the trial.
My servant David went through one trial after another. He constantly faced the choice between fight or flight. He knew where to find comfort. In fact, one of the psalms he wrote lists all the things My Word did for him.
The next time you are having a trying time, digest Psalm 119. David wrote, "It is good for me that I have been afflicted, that I may learn Your statutes. The law of your mouth is better to me than thousands of coins of gold and silver"(Psalm 119:71-72).
PSALM 119
